Product Description
Philip Deval, a soldier recently returned from the beaches of Normandy, arrives in Palestine on a peace-keeping mission in the final days of the British Mandate.The Sea of Galilee glitters in the distance as war-weary troops marvel at the novelty of oranges and sun – a paradise that belies a fierce new conflict about to erupt. Some years later, Philip begins work teaching at a school in the English countryside and meets the enigmatic music mistress, Frances Darwood.Over long evenings spent listening to records in her music room, they grow close.But Philip is a changed man, and must confront the secrets and scars of all he has lived through – which threaten, even now, to upend his future. Farewell to Eden is a sweeping and profound novel about faith in all its forms, and a rich portrait of an embattled post-war Britain.It asks the question: how, after great suffering, do we retain our humanity, learn to love again, and believe in the promise of a better life?
